PARIS, December 29.-Lord Lytton
to-day, handed his credentials to Presi-
dent Iarnot as British ambassador. In
a speech he expressed his pleasure at
returning to France, where he had al
ready served in the diplomatic corps.
Queen Victoria, he said, enjoined him
to spare no efforts to maintain and con-
solidate the goods relations that for
many years hau existed between France
and England. On behalf of the Queen
and the British government. he con
graduated France upon her choice of
President.
NJ. Carnot, in his reply said he would
highly value the realization of Queen
Victoria's injunction, and ne would not
fail to contribute to strengthen those
ties of friendship which draw the two
people together, and which are the best
guarantee of the triumph OF the idea of
progress, peace and liberty.
